商品特色「家庭美術館──美術家傳記」系列叢書精選十位各擅油畫、版畫、水墨、素描、書法等領域之臺灣資深美術家細述他們生命旅途中的層層風景，以及銘刻在臺灣藝壇的美術成就全套書以深入淺出的文字、精美細緻的圖版，結合電子書與影音的多元化閱讀模式為讀者打造一套兼具美感、質感，輕鬆認識臺灣美術史的優質讀物陳幸婉1951年出生於台中，其父親是台灣著名的前輩雕塑家陳夏雨，因此從小親近藝術、喜愛繪畫。1972年畢業於國立台灣藝術專科學校美術科西畫組。內容簡介陳幸婉在三十歲前後辭去教職工作，改以教導兒童美術為業，並致力於藝術創作。1981年師從李仲生，創作大量的「現代素描」，成為她日後藝術創作的基底，也形成她藝術生涯的轉捩點。1984年榮獲台北市立美術館首屆「新展望獎」及「抽象繪畫競賽獎」，備受台灣現代藝術界的肯定。從1990年代起，陳幸婉開始參與國際藝術家的交換計畫，赴瑞士巴塞爾瑪莉安基金會（Christoph Merian Stifung）工作室，開展現代水墨的試探；赴法國巴黎國際藝術村，開拓視野及反思創作的理念；赴美國舊金山海得蘭藝術中心（Headlands Center For the Arts），受到人類歷史上的屠戮、災難，引發對於苦難的觸動，因而創作「戰爭與和平」系列作品。她先後在紙上水墨，和複合媒材之上著力，繼而將兩者交互運用，作品的形式跨越繪畫和雕塑的邊界，訴說對自然及生命的感悟，以及對人類處境的省思觀照，尤以象徵真理精髓的「原形」意象，以及充滿生死張力的「開闔」造形，最為深刻顯著。由於多年的海外創作與行旅經驗，使陳幸婉拓展了藝術視野的深度及廣度，在創作上迭有精進，複合媒材和紙上墨水雙線進行，從平面發展為立體，從立體復歸於平面，形式相互推演轉化，逐漸走向內斂通透。到了後期的作品，色調趨向厚重而沉穩，創作媒材則是結合皮革、紗網、麻布、獸骨等多種現成物。2004年陳幸婉因乳癌病逝於巴黎，年僅五十四歲。對於生命的探索，是她一貫的創作理念，追尋一種純粹、真實、合乎自然的原形與精神性，尤其對時間、生命、死亡、人類的戰爭殺戮等主題，有著深刻的省思與觀照。

情緒能受到控制嗎？理智和情緒是相互矛盾、還是能和諧融合？情緒究竟是生物特性，還是由文化所創造？未來是否能製造出有感情的機器人？大多數時候，我們都可以相當理性地思考。然而，當內心湧現激動的情緒，或是被強烈的心情占據，情況就不同了：交通越來越擁擠時路怒症上身、全神貫注在遊戲或困難的計算中、贏得樂透瞬間致富、追求喜歡的人被斷然拒絕或是對方欣然接受、工作遭受到上司批評……情緒所做的事――讓我們逃離危險，慫恿我們追求有吸引力的人，使我們集中精神，影響我們的判斷力、注意力、記憶力等認知能力――一切都有其理。打開牛津大學出版社最受歡迎通識讀本，用最簡明的方式一探情緒的演變。情緒是編織出社會紋理結構的絲線，從科學角度研究情緒具有極大價值，了解情緒能讓人過得更豐富而不是更貧乏。對思想家來說，展現情緒是合理的。對浪漫派來說，情緒和理智基本上是相互矛盾的。「情緒」一開始就被定義為「難以定義」的詞，即使到了高科技的現代，各類研究論述推陳出新，我們依舊很難為情緒下完善的定論。 「情緒」一詞直到近代才出現，而且其實不太好用？ 情緒究竟是一種生物特性，還是由文化所創造？ 從演化史來看，情緒幫助人類存活？！那麼在相對容易存活的現代，情緒有何作用？ 世間諸多的美德都是「情緒過多或過少」兩種極端的中間點？  讓人幸福或痛苦的事太多了，造成這兩者的眾多因素背後，是否有任何模式可依循？ 現代電腦科學家的目標是：建立能辨識並模擬人類情緒的系統與裝置，這真能實現嗎？本書從生物演化、認知心理學、神經科學和人工智慧等角度探討情緒作用的歷程，試圖綜觀全局，拼湊起各別領域的一些碎片，我們將發現：情緒是一種「共通語言」，雖然文化差異讓人們分隔，然而人類共有的情緒遺產能將彼此聯繫起來。【各方盛讚】本書內容擁有令人欣賞的清晰、聰明且風趣。──英國作家史蒂芬．普爾（Steven Poole），《衛報》（The Guardian）極具閱讀性，是出色的入門書籍。──臨床心理學家巴隆―柯恩（Simon Baron-Cohen），《自然》（nature）有大量證據支持的明智見解。──生物學和社會科學作家馬利克．科恩（Marek Kohn），倫敦旗幟晚報（Evening Standard）可說是科普經典──《週日獨立報》（Independent on Sunday）終於有本著作能以淺顯易懂又引人入勝的方式，探討我們精神生活

Making National Heroes is an ethnography of the making of national heroes in the commemoration of the Second World War in contemporary China. Foregrounding the lived experience of men and women who participate in commemorative activities, it theorises how masculinity and nationalism entangle in recollecting war memories. Taking the feminist line of inquiry, this anthropological study develops an approach to capture the centrality of making exemplars in the realisation of hegemonic masculinities. It adds a gender perspective to studies on exemplarist moral theory and theorises exemplary men’s cross-cultural significance in defining masculinities. Researchers in the fields of critical masculinity studies, anthropology, feminist methodology, China studies, and memory studies will be interested in this book.
